Wedding Shoes Boutique offers the best wedding shoes at the best prices
exclusively from Coloriffics. Since these shoes are for special
occasions such as bridal parties and proms you will want your
dyeable (dyable) items to be the proper color. We do not offer
a dyeing service online due to the tricky nature of dyeing shoes.
Dyeing shoes is an art and not a science. When matched and dyed
properly, you will have a beautiful accessory to your dress. To
ensure your satisfaction with the dyeing process have your shoes
dyed in your hometown (we suggest a local shoe repair shop),
and follow the helpful hints listed below.
1 - Not everyone who mixes colors is good at it! Because
of this always insist on approving your color before your items
are dyed. Ask your dyer to put his mixed color on the test material
which is provided in each box. Now you will be able to see your
color before it is dyed and you'll know exactly what your shoes
will look like when they are finished.
2 - Dyed items look different from indoor to outdoor (natural)
lighting. Shoes dyed peach, beige and taupe for example will look
pinkish outside. Grey shoes can take on a purple tone outside.
Color changes in different light settings is due to the fabric
that is being dyed and simply can not be avoided. Inform your
dyer of the lighting at your affair. Also when you go to approve
your color take the test material that your dyer put your color
on and look at it in the appropriate lighting. This will allow
you to see any variance in color and make you feel more comfortable
about your color. Once again you'll know exactly what you are
getting.
3 - The dye applied to your shoes is water soluble. If
your dyed items are exposed to water or heavy moisture the dye
can bleed or stain. To prevent this use a water repellent spray
on your shoes. The spray will not make your shoes fully waterproof
but it is the best available protection against staining. The
spray is sold at most shoe repair shops. It is fast drying and
will not affect your color. Once your shoes have sprayed the color
is sealed in meaning you can not re-dye your shoes at a later
date. If you choose not to spray your shoes you will be able to
dye them a darker color at a later date if you so desire.
4 - Most shoe repair shops dye shoes. The cost varies
from $5 to $15. Call around for the best price. If you bring someone
4 pairs or more that will be dyed all the same color you may also
be able to negotiate a better price. It never hurts to ask!!!
